I was driving down the road and all of a sudden my car just died out and woulnt start. Went to the side of the road and tried to start, cranked but didnt turn over. I here the clicks from the relay when i turn the key to on and the engine light comes on and when it goes off I hear the click. Also i hear the fuel pump prime. So I dont know what to do now. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

check your grounds

How are things in GA? i used to live in marietta and canton. anyway, without knowing what mods you've made and whether or not you've checked your plugs and wires i couldn't tell you. i would start with that and make sure your sensors (cam position and such) are all still connected. i know how bumpy some of those roads are

Checked grounds from engine to radiator support=good

Checked battery ground looked=good

ajbreezay

Are these the only ones to check?

ajbreezay

I have a stock motor!

test your battery for at least 12.45 volts

ajbreezay

It had full power when turning over could this still be it?

jonlovesuti

if the battery has less than 12.45v it generally won't have enough power to start the car. if that's fine then i'd check your whole intake from the filter to the throttle body, when i lived out there i always had leaves and what not getting into my intake. i doubt that's it but i've seen some weird stuff in my years

ajbreezay

Can it still be the main relay even if i hear the fuel pump prime and the clicks?

Check for spark at the plugs. If there's no spark, first check whether the timing belt snapped. If the belt is fine, check the coil and ICM in the distributor.

okay thanks will do tomorrow

sounds like the coil check for spark

Thanks guys found out what it was. Thanks to you guys! It turned out to be the distributor coil. Had a spare one in the basement from a old motor I had.
Thanks Alot!
